The Thursday edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live just got even more hilarious than ever when the show's "Mean Tweets" segment featured President Barack Obama.
Obama, who is used to the attention from the media, did not actually read the tweets in a monotonous voice. He added some pauses, stressed some of the words, looked at the camera in between reading, and even made a few smart comments on some of the tweets.
Apart from Obama, there have been a number of popular celebrities who have been featured in the "Mean Tweets" segment. These include Katy Perry, Chris Pratt, and even Jimmy Kimmel himself. In this part of the show, the guest is invited to verbalize the thoughts of their "haters" in social media. Obama's stint on the show proves he's the world's "coolest president."
"I think it's important to remember that presidents are people too and from time to time, we give celebrities a chance to read some of the mean things people tweet about them. And tonight, we extended that same courtesy to our Commander In Chief and with that said, it's time now for an 'All President Obama edition of Mean Tweets,'" said Kimmel as he introduced the segment.
It should be noted that the tweets were not read randomly. In other words, Kimmel and his staff made sure that the tweets would not sound insulting and thus make the president feel uncomfortable.
Here are the tweets Obama read:
"Obama's hair is looking grayer these days. Can't imagine why since he doesn't seem to be one bit worried about all that's going on," tweeted @carold501.
"Is there any way we could fly Obama to some golf course halfway around the world and just leave him there," tweeted @RWSurferGirl.
"A 30 rack of coors light is $23 now at Sun Stop. Thanks Obama," tweeted @campaignrpoz.
"How do you make Obama's eyes light up? Shine a flashlight in his ears," tweeted @ken.
"Somebody send Obama some lifehacks on how to be a good president. Haha. Like, I bet that would help. Lol," tweeted @theautho.
"I'm all right with the President wearing jeans. I'm not all right with the President wearing THOSE jeans," tweeted @TPPratt.
